number of oxygen : 6

number of whole atoms in molchol :

6 + 12 + 6 = 24

Percentage of oxygen = n o o / n o a i m × 100

P o o = 6 / 24 × 100

P o o = 1/4 × 100

P o o = % 25

Mass of elements in
\mathrm{C_6H_(12)O_6} are :

  • O =
    16 u

  • C =
    12 u

  • H =
    1 u

Total mass of
\mathrm{C_6H_(12)O_6} is :


  • (12u * 6) + (1u * 12) +( 16u * 6)


  • 72u + 12u + 96u


  • 180u

Total Mass of Oxygen in
\mathrm{C_6H_(12)O_6} is :


  • 16u * 6


  • 96u

Percentage of Oxygen by mass in
\mathrm{C_6H_(12)O_6} is :


\boxed{ (total \: \: mass \: \: of \: \: oxygen)/(total \: \: mass \: of \: glucose ) * 100 }


  • (96u)/(180u) * 100


  • (32u)/(3u) * 5


  • (160u)/(3u)


  • 53.33 \: \%
